The property
Stone Walls, which was converted in 2007, is a beautifully presented barn
conversion. In 2020 an annexe was built beside and above the garage with its
own entrance on Tilton Lane and a dedicated off - street parking place.
The remainder of the house has huge flexibility of accommodation and real
character with exposed ceiling trusses, stone and brickwork walls, stone
window sills and Inglenooks. The house is light and airy throughout and offers
a real versatility in terms of room usage.
Emanating from the entrance hall are the annexe internal entrance, a utility
room with WC and a staircase leading to bedroom 4/ Study. To the left is the
kitchen which forms the centrepiece and hub of the house. This has a range of
farmhouse style units with wooden work surfaces and a range cooker. French
doors open onto the central courtyard. Beyond, is the drawing room which has a
log burning stove and French doors opening onto the garden.
A glazed passage leads to the remainder of the accommodation which includes a
ground floor bedroom (3) and a family bathroom as well as the sitting room
which has French doors opening onto the garden. Upstairs, the principal
bedroom has an en suite shower room, dressing room and study. There is a
further bedroom with an en suite shower room off the main stairs.
Outside
A five bar gate between high brick gate pillars opens onto a generous parking
area with room for multiple vehicles. Ahead is a terrace positioned to get the
morning and midday sun. The main garden is located to the west of the house
and has a street access from the Tilton Lane. Well planted with mature trees
and shrubs, it has a terrace to its southern end with a pergola providing
opportunity for sun well into the evening and far reaching countryside views
to the south and west.
